It is a version of your hearthstone, functions exactly like it, that is inside your Toybox.So if you've managed to get this item, you can delete your Hearthstone and use this instead.

Save yourself an inventory spot on all your characters.

A blast from the past. We'll all get this toy before the giddie gallies end hehe

Just finished making one and tried using it out. Unfortunately, as far as I can tell, there's no special visual associated with this, like you would get if you used Ethereal Portal or Dark Portal. It just plays the standard hearthing animation. Kind of a bummer really. I was hoping it would have a Diablo-style portal bubble around you and blink you away.

Still, it's useful for those who don't have The Innkeeper's Daughter and want to save an inventory space. And it's a toy for toy collectors. So there's that!

EDIT: As commenters below have mentioned, the Tome does play the Diablo town portal sound effect when you use it, so at least it does do things a little different from default. Still would have liked a unique visual to go with it, though.

Just add a graphic of a Diablo style portal while casting this. That would require very little art resource.

Comment by Addy

Does not change the hearthstoning visuals, but instead replaces the audio with a Diablo teleport sound.

The cast is a lot quieter compared to the original hearthstone channel.

My hearthstone macro so I can have all hearthstones on my bar without taking up multiple slots, modified to use this instead of The Innkeeper's Daughter.1 = left click2 = right click3 = wheel click.

If you've a 5 button mouse and want to add additional spells from specific clicks the forward and back buttons are 4 and 5, I forget which is which.It's easy to reorder these if you'd rather have one of the other stones as left click, just swap the numbers.

Now I like WoW, been playing it straight since TBC, not much bothers me. But this is something where I say blizzard has gotten lazy. There's no animation change, just a small sound change. They could have at least gave it a new visual. Unless you're a toy collector, this is pretty much useless to have.

This isn't showing up in my toy collection as something that I have yet to collect.

Comment by Weria

I'm disappointed that they added another toy that leads to same place where original Hearthstone was connected to instead of another place.

9 years ago i asked my wifes younger brother who showed me wow, if there were Town portals in wow (im a big Diablo fan)- No he said we have heart stone or HS as we call it in wow, i called him today when i got this and said he was wrong and i was right :)

Comment by Hipster

I would love to see a visual change in a later patch. Hopefully it isn't like this forever. Don't be lazy Blizzard!

The most exciting aspect of getting this toy was regaining the 11 slots of bag space!

It starts casting Escape Portal for 5 seconds as soon as you attack it. It is immune to stuns and interrupts, but you can stop it by other means like Death Grip, Typhoon, and other knockbacks. (Confirmed, thanks, Quaeras)

Keep an eye out for Crate of Ratstallion Harnesses beside Raethan in the default safe zone (or you could buy it yourself if you have the 950 eyes). It will let you mount up and ride to the goblin fast so you can tag it before it dies.

Hire a guard from Raethan for 5g every 5 minutes so you don't get bothered by PVP. Beware though, there are a few bugs related to guard disappearing (see comments).

Comment by Rtucci

I thought for sure it would look and sound just like the port from Diablo.

Comment by SITB

I would have really liked to see this toy cast the portal animation from the Diablo series. It seems like a bit of a missed opportunity. Ah well. I doubt it will happen, but I would love it if Blizzard improved the animation for this in an update at some point.

Comment by Greif

You can destroy your hearthstone and this will still port you to your hearth.

Comment by Kellesreally

Be aware that this isn't *another* hearthstone, it just allows you to replace the one in your bag with this toy if you so desire. They share a cooldown, so you're not getting another "free" hearth. If you already own The Innkeeper's Daughter , it pretty much makes this useless to farm. Save yourself the frustration.

Comment by emmaworld

there is no effect change. same as Hearthstone. just glowing green on hands.

Comment by Quepid

So is this item now unobtainable? I'm still walking around with 7 scrolls and the tome in a desperate hope that I would magically come across a scroll in some other way since the event ended :(

Comment by Cr00xY

A low lvl char asked on trade today if someone can pester GM about restoring this item (in case they got multiple on alts), not restoring themselves but specifically asking a GM. Because apparently there's a way to 'learn' this toy's effect somehow from another player. Anyone got any idea what that might be?

Comment by Draksis45

Is it still posibble to get this toy? I ask because I have 8 scrolls, so either complete the toy , or just scrap the items for bank space

Comment by Azurfel

The /use sound effect for this item seems to have changed at some point recently.

It used to make the chimey town portal noise from Diablo 3, with the whoosh-poppy Diablo 3 teleportation pad noise on the end.

As of 2018.08.18, it makes the chimey noise, but the old whoosh-pop has been replaced with a new/different woosh noise unrelated to Diablo as far as i can recall.

Comment by Somers

Does the guild perk hasty hearth and the BfA Seafarer's Hearth affect this?

Comment by SleepyCloud

I just noticed that using this does not break stealth (at least rogue's stealth)!

Comment by wowogamer

If you want to put a lot of your teleports/hearthstones on a single Action Button, you can use the following macro:

You can replace any of the above teleports/hearthstones with any other teleport/hearthstone you wish. For example is Dreamwalk the Legion teleport for Druids but it can easily be replaced with Death Gate for Death Knights and so on.

If you want to show off the animations from the different hearthstones, you can click 1, 2 or 3 and cancel the teleport just before it takes off. As long as you don't activate the teleport itself (which takes 10 seconds to trigger minus your current haste-modifier), you can do the associated animations as many times you like in a row. Enjoy ;)
